I am the brother of the original poster, and look after the car for him. OK, so it looks like the engine is coming off. Just to confirm, if i put the car in gear, and try to start the engine, it has drive, and jolts forwards, but in neutral, it just spins up with a whiring noise as someone above described. I am sure the answer is yes. Where do i buy the Centa coupling ?from?
Car has done 7000 miles. That's a lot of smiles.
So the starter motor is driving through the flywheel, clutch and gear box then.
